[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 469640, member: 2315"] I find that if I look back too much that I get very angry. I find myself asking... what if this doctor hadn't done that, or this person had done that, or what if husband had tried had taken on more of the dicipline instead of leaving it to me. What if husband had insisted that difficult child stick with scouts and volunteered instead of giving up etc, etc, etc. The what ifs are so numerous and so futile. The anger that comes with rehashing these things no longer serves a purpose It is all in the past and the past cannot be undone. Therefore I do not think that looking back in a way that conjurs up so much angst is healthy. I try to deal with the present and look to the future. It is the only way for me to live with any kind of happiness and peace. -RM [/QUOTE]
